WELCOME TO THE ONLINE HOME OF THE
ICONIC INDIANAPOLIS ALUMNAE CHAPTER The Indianapolis Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. is a private/non-profit organization, based on Christian principles, whose purpose is to provide assistance and support through established programs in local communities and throughout the world. The major programs of the sorority are based upon the organization’s Five Point Programmatic Thrust.
Internationally and locally, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., is working to address violence against women and encouraging all members to break the culture of silence surrounding this issue. To support the organization’s tireless work to end domestic violence and increase awareness amongst minorities, the Indianapolis Alumnae Chapter (IAC) has developed a Domestic and Sexual Violence Initiative called H.E.L.P. – Having Essential Links for your Protection. Additionally, our web site includes other information about our sorority history, chapter history, service projects and other initiatives. Thank you for visiting our web site and we hope you enjoy your time here with us! |

Kindness
So speak encouraging words to one another. Build up hope so you’ll all be together in this, no one left out, no one left behind. I know you’re already doing this; just keep on doing it. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 Message “Be kind to others, so you may learn the secret art of being kind to yourself”—Paramahansa Yogananda Rev. Pat Carson, DMin IAC Chaplains Council |
Kindness as the solution to our contemporary challenges may sound deceptively simple, yet it is far more profound and complex than we might realize. According to study, "the beneficial impacts of kindness are experienced in the brains of those who witnessed the act, elevating their mood and making them substantially more willing to 'pay it forward.'" This means that a single act of kindness in a busy environment can have a domino effect and brighten the day of many!"
You see kindness, justice, and rightness; doing the right thing aligns us with God and with humanity. If the only thing we did right now was to embrace the idea that “people are more important than things,” we could improve many of the social issues of our time. At the heart of kindness is a willingness to move beyond our personal preferences; what we want, when we want it, and remember that people are why we are here. Remember, being kind to others “UNLOCKS” the secret art of you being kind to yourself. Beloved Sisters, let your kindness reveal to the world how you really feel about “you”.
